Cuckoo Hosts Fine‐Tune Their Egg Rejection After Experiencing a Parasitism Event by Bin Li, Longwu Wang, Jianping Liu, Wei Liang

“…When a single pure white egg of the white‐rumped munia (Lonchura striata) or a blue model egg was individually added to the nest of the grey bushchat, the rejection rate for the white‐rumped munia eggs was as high as 93.3%, whereas the rejection rate for the blue model egg was minimal (5.56%). However, when the grey bushchat rejected the munia egg and a blue model egg was subsequently added to its nest, the rejection rate for the blue model egg was significantly higher, reaching 54.5%. …”
